What I'm looking for

I want a software engineering role where I can own end-to-end features across the MERN stack, improve production reliability, and work with a collaborative team that values growth.

I am a full-stack developer specializing in the MERN stack with 2+ years building end-to-end web applications, from database schemas to responsive user interfaces. I have a track record of resolving production issues (21+ fixes), architecting RESTful APIs, and delivering user-focused features such as authentication flows, TDEE calculators, and API integrations.

I combine formal CS50 training with hands-on bootcamp experience to produce maintainable code and polished frontends, deploy via CI/CD, and mentor teammates. I seek software engineering roles where I can contribute across the entire stack and continue improving production reliability and user experience.
